Transiting Canada with a Nug
OK, so if you’re an ole Mash fan, you will know Nug is Gun spelled
backwards.I’ve heard all kinds of horror stories about Canadian border
crossings and not being able to transport firearms. Well today I
entered Canada at Sarnia near Port Huron, MI in route to upstate NY
and entering the US again at Niagara Falls. This trip through Ontario
saved me about 450 miles by not going the long route through OH and
PA.I did my homework in advance, downloaded the Non-Resident Firearm
Declaration Form CAFC 909 and the process couldn’t have been easier.
No hassles, no inspections and no delays. The only delay was the line
getting back into the US at Lewiston, NY.I did change out the arsenal before leaving home and only brought
a pump shotgun. The cost was 25.00. There are different rules and
regulations for the various type guns and many are not allowed at
all, so do your homework ahead of time.Fuel in Ontario was 1.15 per liter or about 4.40 per gallon.

FYI, fuel in Alberta was as low as $1.5/liter, in Brtish Columbia it’s in the $1.25 – $1.35/liter range and those come south say it’s as high as $20/liter.
I crossed into Canada on I-15 in Montana. No lines, 5 minutes to cross. Although I’m not carrying a gun, that was one of the few questions asked by the Canadian border agent.
